Hey guys. My zx recently decided to take a very close look at the back of a PT Cruiser at 50mph (brake pedal went straight to the floor) and there is now some extensive damage to the front of the car. Would it be better for me to try and repair it (not sure if chassis is bent yet) or to find a good lookin non-turbo with a knackered engine and get the conversion done. The engine I had in my car had only been in there a couple of months and still runs now but the rad is jammed against the fan so im just leaving it alone for now till i know what 2 do. Is it fust a straight engine bay swap or does the gearbox and clutch etc have to be done aswell. Any help would be mos…

Have attached a photo of a service sticker that i found on my car, what does it mean, do i need a service or has it just been done in Japan, my car has only coverd another 500 klm since the klm shown on the sticker??

Went down the garage today to have a look at what else needs doing to the bodywork and realised I'd forgotten about something that needs major attention: the outside trim. I can take the remaining front wipers and scuttle panel off and spray those myself quite easily but it's the black painted (not sure what it is really as it almost looks rubberised?) metal trim that runs across the roof that I'm wondering about. As I imagine most people find, it's peeled off in places exposing the metal underneath (see attachment: excuse the photo, the metal looks black due to the lighting and the black covering looks grey from the filler dust! ;)). I was wondering if it mig…

Engine is running sweet, boost is registering on stock and aftermarket guages, but I'm just not getting the kick in the back I used to, and I notice that my BOVs aren't hissing anymore. I do get a kind of faint rattle when I back off though. Also, the turbo "spool" noise seems to be quieter than it was. Anyone got any ideas? Silly question possibly, but if I had a boost leak, would that mean that less boost would show on the guages? Cheers Rich

Hey all, thinking about fitting an apline screen above my current alpine headunit, thus getting rid of the air vents. Once i got this dun i wanna get a PS2 in the car, the slim one. Question is where do u lot have yours? Best place i can think of is the glove box, but i think i'm gonna have to adjust it so that it can fit? Suggestions n ideas people :)

Notice most of you guys are putting a nice size photo of your lovely motors under your messages (Not a wiz on the computer )so can someone help me with this please .Cheers

just fitted my hicas eliminator bar to find that the bypass tube supplied doesnt fit the hicas fail safe valve is there any other way to stop the power steering fluid from goin to th back end? cheers

My dad and bruv were out this morn and reckon they saw a black 300 with a front mounted intercooler, modded front bumper and sideskirts and what looked like two 5" zorsts on the back. Apparently it sounded awesome, if you see this, what zorst do you have? Cheers, Dan :cool:

I know this is prob a daft question but I need to make 100% certain before I shell out my hard earned dosh that they r ok.

hi does anyone have instructions wiring diagram checked on net but seems to be different from mine has a pipe with t piece :headvswal

i am looking in to buying some crome alloys for my zed how big can i go?? was only really thinking of 18 but would like to go wide, especially on the rear?? please help, need to replace soon, ps if any one has any for sale would be interseted in pics,,

does anyone make/sell battery covers for the zed ? seems a shame to fit all that bling and leave the ugly battery on show

When I was breaking one of my 300's for bits , I could not beleive how heavy the tailgate is, I have see that zcentre do a conversion http://www.zcentre.co.uk/spoilers/zc022a.htm Just wondering what its made of (fibreglass?) this must reduce the weight drastically =more power Do they do an orrigional look made from fibreglass too?

after looking at my z sitting there waiting for the gearbox ive given up and im thinking of buying a celica gt4 anyone out there ever had one of these, what are they like??

Hi guys n gals. One of the quieter members here, lol. Z just failed the mot on "excessive play on off side rear bottom ball joint" The question is where can I get one and how much am I looking at, not that I have much choice in the matter if I wanna drive her, lol. Much appreciated, Fill.

Hi all, Not had time to check it out yet, so may be something silly, but my Z seems to have developed a noise as though something is 'catching' once on every wheel revolution (speeds up with road speed). Very noticable on left turns, more lock means more noticable. Any suggestions to set me looking in the right direction?? May be as simple as something stuck in the tyre I s'pose... (probably a 6" nail in the tyre wall knowing my luck :-( ) Cheers! RobH

:headvswal k i've taken apart everything, and i mean everything on the passenger side of the car to find this hole through the bulkhead WHICH i CANNOT still find :headvswal N when i mean everything i mean panels wise, im trying to run the cable from the amp to the battery through the wing, n nope no luck at all. If ANYONE has a picture of where it is you will be my saviour!

Need some serious help! I have just tried to install a twin apexi induciton kit on the Z. Unfortunately the thread for the screw for the big jubilee clip that holds the piping to the AFM has buggered so I can't fit the intake back on! :headvswal Is there anyone in the area (Darlington / north yorks) who can help me out, or give some advice on how to drive without an air filter??!! Cheers Jon

I want to get some idea of the most common place's Z32's can lose there engine Oil/Powersteering/Transmission/Coolant. Remember all cars have different places some the same but many still unique... So please post where your Zed leaked and what was involved in rectifying the leak ie: cost of parts,labour,your own time,Damage caused,Whether you brokedown. By posting your leaks would Also help others by giving Them some guidance into rectifying there leaks,and we've all had leaks of some kind either Big or small.... Cheers... :headvswal :)
